Nevertheless, an implementation must be capable of Deering [Page 9] RFC 1054 Host Extensions for IP Multicasting May 1988 listening on an arbitrary number of Ethernet multicast addresses, which may mean "opening up" the address filter to accept all multicast packets during those periods when the number of addresses exceeds the limit of the filter.

Deering [Page 12] RFC 1054 Host Extensions for IP Multicasting May 1988 When a host joins a new group, it should immediately transmit a Report for that group, rather than waiting for a Query, in case it is the first member of that group on the network.

The multicast routers are no longer considered trustworthy controllers of group membership; it is up to hosts and their administrators to provide their own mechanisms to prevent unwanted eavesdropping on group communication, perhaps by using end-to-end encryption or by imposing restrictions on the flow of IP multicast datagrams into and out of particular administrative domains.

This measure would allow anyone who invests via a venture capital fund, to roll over tax free a gain from the sale of a "qualified small business stock" when the proceeds are reinvested in another small business stock.

However, the "rollover" benefits of §1054 currently is limited to individuals.

What the new bill would do is extend the benefits of §1054 to noncorporate investors in venture capital partnerships.

Although this nebula was discovered in 1731 by John Bevis, an amateur astronomer, and then independently rediscovered by Charles Messier in 1758, it was not until professional astronomers Hubble (1928) and Mayall (1939) wrote papers suggesting that the Chinese "guest star" of 1054 A.D. be interpreted as the supernova associated with the Crab Nebula.

It may also show that the supernova was observed possibly 5 weeks before the July 4, 1054 date as recorded in the ancient Chinese chronicles.

The treatise described Latins as "dogs, bad workmen, schismatics, hypocrites, and liars." Cerularius's chancellor, Nicephorus, entered the Latin churches and trampled upon the Holy Eucharist because it was consecrated with unleavened bread.

He died in April, and the negotiations continued until July when the Cardinal representing Rome marched into the great church of Hagia Sophia and, in the name of the late Leo IX, put on the high altar a declaration excommunicating Cerularius and those who followed him.

Hwang's research seems to also be supported by the work of several other researchers who have supported the possibility that the Supernova of 1054 AD may have been observed earlier than reported by the Chinese astronomers.

The actual 1054 occurrance of the supernova shows that the expansion must have been accelerated.

The nebula consists of the material ejected in the supernova explosion, which has been spread over a volume approximately 10 light years in diameter, and is still expanding at the very high velocity of about 1,800 km/sec.

Antiquity; 9/1/1997; Rowe, M.W. Researchers since at least 1957 have attributed certain distinctive western US rock paintings and carvings as graphic recordings of a supernova that occurred on July 4, 1054 AD, whose remnants scientists generally agree is what is referred to as the Crab Nebula.

Two panels of rock paintings in the Lava Beds National Monument in California, one at Fern Cave and the other at Symbol Bridge, have been listed as recording the AD 1054supernova.

Scientific analysis of the painting at Fern Cave conclusively indicate that its rock painting is not a depiction of the 1054supernova
